Product details
Overview
S25FL116K0XNFV011 from Cypress Semiconductor is a 16-Mbit (2 Mbyte), 3.0 V serial NOR flash memory with SPI Multi-I/O interface, supporting Normal Read (50 MHz), Fast/Dual/Quad Read (108 MHz), uniform 4-kB sector and 64-kB block erase, and Execute-In-Place (XIP) operation for embedded code storage in industrial microcontroller systems.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL116K0XNFV011 datasheet, S25FL116K0XNFV011 pinout, S25FL116K0XNFV011 application, or S25FL116K0XNFV011 equivalent, key selection criteria include quad I/O read bandwidth (54 MB/s), 100K program-erase endurance, 20-year data retention, hardware write protection via WP#/HOLD#, and SOIC-8 (208 mil) package compatibility with legacy FL-K designs.
Technical Context
This SPI flash implements JEDEC-standard Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters (SFDP) for automatic configuration, supports SPI clock modes 0 and 3, and enables variable dummy cycle latency to optimize initial access time versus maximum clock rate. Its 90 nm floating gate process ensures stable operation across −40 °C to +105 °C industrial plus temperature range.
The device integrates three 256-byte one-time-programmable (OTP) security registers, top/bottom block protection with 4-kB granularity, and lock-down until power cycle functionality. All program and erase operations support suspend/resume, enabling concurrent host processing during non-volatile memory updates.
Key Specifications

| VSS | Ground | Reference return path for all signals and internal circuitry |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad Read (QIO) Mode | 54 MB/s continuous throughput enables real-time XIP of medium-complexity firmware without external RAM buffering |
| Program/Erase Suspend | Allows host CPU to interrupt flash operations for high-priority tasks, then resume without data loss or state corruption |
| Three 256-byte OTP Registers | Secure storage for cryptographic keys, calibration data, or device-specific identifiers with permanent write-lock capability |
| Variable Dummy Cycle Latency | Configurable initial wait states per read command - balances fast startup vs maximum clock frequency in system timing budget |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial NOR flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| S25FL064L0XNFV011 | 64-Mbit density, 133 MHz Quad Read, 1.8 V / 3.0 V dual supply, newer 65 nm process | Higher capacity and speed; requires voltage translation if interfacing with 3.3 V-only hosts | Select for new designs needing >16 Mbit or higher throughput; not pin-compatible with S25FL116K |
| MX25L1606EM2I-12G | 16-Mbit, 86 MHz Quad Read, 2.7–3.6 V, no suspend/resume, no SFDP, no OTP registers | Lacks security features and advanced command flexibility; lower cost for basic code storage only | Choose where security, endurance, or suspend capability are non-critical; footprint-compatible but functionally limited |
Compared with S25FL116K0XNFV011, S25FL064L offers higher density and speed but requires design revision for voltage and pinout, while MX25L1606EM2I provides basic 16-Mbit storage at lower cost but omits OTP, suspend/resume, and SFDP-making it suitable only for simple, non-secure applications.

FAQ
Is S25FL116K0XNFV011 still recommended for new designs?
No. Cypress explicitly states this part is "Not Recommended for New Design" and recommends migrating to the S25FL064L family. It remains available for legacy support and last-time buys, but lacks roadmap extension, long-term supply assurance, or updated qualification for emerging standards.
What does the 'XNFV011' suffix indicate in S25FL116K0XNFV011?
The 'XNFV011' suffix denotes an 8-lead SOIC (208 mil) package (XN), Industrial Plus temperature grade (F), lead-free and RoHS-compliant (V), and tape-and-reel packaging (011). This matches the SOC008 package option specified in the datasheet for the S25FL116K variant.
Does S25FL116K0XNFV011 support Quad SPI commands like 4-4-4 mode?
Yes. It supports Quad Read (06h + 0Bh/6Bh) and Quad Page Program (32h) commands, enabling true 4-bit-wide data transfer on IO0–IO3. However, Quad Page Program (32h) is explicitly listed as unsupported in the migration notes-only Quad Read is fully functional in QIO mode, with WP# and HOLD# disabled during QIO operation.
Can S25FL116K0XNFV011 be used in automotive applications?
Yes-qualified for AEC-Q100 Grade 2 (−40 °C to +105 °C) and Grade 3 (−40 °C to +85 °C). It meets automotive reliability requirements for infotainment, telematics, and body control modules, though Cypress recommends S25FL-L series for new automotive designs due to enhanced qualification scope and longevity.
